performance

[raptar 48]

Hi all,

Would there be any different's in performance between an HW100KT carbine & the full-length rifle?

You will get more shots per fill on the full length version but no difference in performance.

You might get a bit more accuracy with the long barrel,  higher shot count, with full length,  the down side is the extra weight

The carbine ( shorter rifle) is far easier to use in hides etc than a full length 100.

                    I use both HW 100 KS .22 and HW 100 KT .177 as most of my air rifle hunting is hide work and ambush tactics.

                    With the shot count i generally keep to four mag`s of 14, or 56 shots of perfection with the .177 KT.

                     With the KS .22 i stick with 5 mags tops.

                    Very rare,if ever, other than pigeon decoying, will i ever need to refill with air.

what do you find better for the woody's   .177 or .22? I take it that you are doing back and shoulder shots on them.

[mark williams 7,550]

Any of the calibers will do the job if you do yours and make sure all your shots hit the kill zones.

                    I tend to only ever use head shot, side on heart/ lung shot or the between the shoulder blades shot ( if you will).
